On the next morning I awake carefully. It is 8 am. Too early. I turn and lie on my cat. Screaming, I sit up. Damn pet! From now on my bed is forbidden to her. I fall asleep again and dream of stupid things. At 11 am I finally get up. Cat wants out, her problem, now she stays outside. I go to the bathtub, I want my rest. I listen to my PHANTOM of the OPERA-CD and sing with the singers. As my favourite song is played, the doorbell rings. Oh no, not again! I ignore it. But its doesn't stop. I cover myself with a towel and open the door. THE PRIEST! Instinctively I slam the door. But he rings again. I go crazy here! What the hell shall I do? I open the door and smile: "Hi." Of course he returns my grin. "I bring your cloak. Actually I wanted to give it to you yesterday, but you left so quickly." I feel that I blush again. Stupid habit. I truly should stop doing this. I take my cloak and try to close the door. "May I ask why you disturbed my sermon?" I shrug. "I wanted to." He tilts his head ever so slightly. "And the kiss?" I shrug again. "I wanted to." I sounded a bit like I was pouting but who cares. "Actually, I wanted to preach to you alone again to let you know what I wanted to say at church, but it seems you are deaf on that ear." He turns to leave. Great, bitch, so you ruined a great chance again! "Hey! Wait, that sounds cool. Uhm, where and when?" He turns back towards me "What about now?" I look down at myself, wrapped only in a towel. "But may I change my clothes before you do?" The priest smirks "If you really want to." Once again with a red face, I ask him to enter. I hope my neighbor saw all this, the old cow. I guide him to my living room and excuse myself. As quickly as possible I change my clothes to sexier ones and comb my hair. Of course, there is a lovely strand that falls into my eyes. I put on a bit make-up and feel like a human again. A human with awful hair, but a human nonetheless. I enter my living room and find him sitting on the couch. "Do you want something to drink?" - "No, thank you." He gets up, I sit down. He starts to preach. I don't care about his words, but I listen to the sound of his voice. I move from the couch and sit down on the floor. He sits down opposite to me. Still he is preaching. Somehow I become hungry. I truly need some food now. Deep in my thoughts I play with my hair as this stupid strand falls into my eyes again. I hate my hair. I lift up my hand to remove the strand. He had the same thought. Our hands meet. He silences and looks deep into my eyes. This scares me and like an idiot I jump up. I try to change the topic. "A-are you maybe hungry?" Not very ingenious, I know, but now I can think clear again. Until now. He gets up and pulls me to himself. Deeply kissing we lay down on the carpet again.

The ringing of the doorbell gets me out of my dreams. I lie in my cold bathing water and my whole skin looks as if I shrunk. My CD is over, too. I cover myself with a towel and walk to the door. I open and outside I see the priest with my cloak. PANIC!!!
